Clay,
I use REBOL/View and its easy and fast. As for the length of time
to create the product that would be contigent upon the complexity of course
of the information provided. For example the following piece of code simply
take a a login/password and path and retrieves the contents of an ftp
directory. Simple code and effective. REBOL is definately the right
language for the task. I cant think of anything faster or easier. I have
very little programming experience with other languages including C and
Visual Basic but I am beyond intermediate with REBOL.
REBOL [
Title: "BLENDER"
]
; Create the Image layout
ftpaccess: layout [
backdrop %scene.jpg title "Pauls FTP Access" 255.255.0
text "Enter Host Address/Directory" hr: field "127.0.0.1"
text "Login Name" ln: field "administrator"
text "Password" Pw: field "froggy"
; Build URL for FTP SITE and access the contents
button "FTP Access" [
ftpurl: join ftp:// [ln/text ":" pw/text "@" hr/text]
data: read ftpurl
foreach filename data [print filename]
]
]
view ftpaccess
